APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS: R315-260 through 273, R315-15 of the Utah
Administrative Code (UAC)
CREDENTIALS, PURPOSE AND SCOPE:
The purpose of this Compliance Evaluation Inspection was to evaluate the facility's waste
management practices for compliance with applicable rules under R315 of the Utah
Administrative Code and the Utah Solid and Hazardous Waste Act 19-6-101.
Upon our arrival we presented our credentials to the receptionist, signed in and asked for Rich
Madsen. Rich Madsen met us in the lobby and directed us to a conference room.
I mentioned that their last inspection was with Rebecca Smith back in 2020 when they received a
warning letter which was later closed out, but that I could not find the corrective action
documentation in our files. Rich showed me his notes documenting attempts to contact Rebecca
(Photo 1). I explained she no longer worked for the Division and explained that communications
about corrective actions should go through the DEQ’s official submittal portal, with a copy to
me.
FACILITY DESCRIPTION:
Blanchard Metals Processing is a family-owned business that has been in operation since 1967
and since 1978 in this location. Blanchard heat treats, uses chemical conversion processes,
anodizes, performs cadmium plating and paints aerospace and military parts. Blanchard also
performs non-destructive testing. Most of the parts that Blanchard treats are aluminum or steel,
and occasionally brass or copper parts. Their biggest clients are aerospace companies such as
Williams International, SpaceX, and Northrop Grumman.
MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES:
Blanchard operates a wastewater treatment system with a discharge permit issued by Salt Lake
City.
Blanchard generates F006 filter cake from its wastewater treatment system; cadmium carbonate
when its cadmium plating solution becomes spent; spent chromic acid when its chrome plating
solution becomes spent; electroless nickel strike, sodium dichromate, and sulfuric anodize when
the solutions becomes spent and a tank must be emptied. Sodium cyanide is used in the cadmium
plating process.
Blanchard ships hazardous waste offsite for disposal approximately every four months.
Blanchard uses cotton swabs to clean parts with methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). At the time of the
inspection Blanchard was throwing the used cotton swabs in the regular garbage. As of June 27,
2024, they were managing the used swabs as exempt solvent wipes.
Blanchard uses MEK to clean pain guns and other painting equipment. At the time of the
inspection, they were allowing the spent MEK to evaporate and disposing of the residue in the
regular garbage. As of June 27, 2024, they were managing the spent MEK as hazardous waste in
a satellite accumulation area.
NARRATIVE:
We began our walkthrough in the heat-treat area. No hazardous waste is generated from the heat-
treating process. We moved on to the Chem Film line and saw the rinse water agitator (Photo
10). Wastewater is piped from the agitator to the wastewater treatment system. Hazardous waste
is generated from this process if a process tank becomes spent.
The Masking Room is adjacent to the Chem Film line. Rich Madsen said that no hazardous
waste was generated from this process. Later while discussing waste generation in the paint area
we learned that Blanchard uses cotton swabs to clean parts with methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) in
the Masking Room.
We saw four drums identified as waste oil on a secondary containment pallet (Photo 11). Rich
confirmed that the contents are managed as used oil. I instructed him to relabel the containers
“used oil” and to send me a photo.
On our way to the wastewater treatment area we saw a drum of soda ash, used to neutralize acid
spills (Photo 12).
We moved on to the wastewater treatment area. Blanchard’s wastewater treatment system
consists of rinse holding tanks, used process solution tanks, and a filter press. (Photos 13-18) We
saw a small amount of F006 hazardous waste filter cake on the floor under the filter press. I
instructed Rich to have it cleaned up and send me a photo of the cleaned area. F006 filter cake is
accumulated in a roll-off container outside at the south end of the property. The roll-off was
closed, labeled hazardous waste, and the accumulation date was marked on the container. The
container was not labeled or marked with an indication of the toxic hazard of the contents.
(Photo 19) Rich wrote “toxic” on the container while we were there. (Photo 20)
We next observed a tote full of Used Oil, but it was not labeled Used Oil. We observed three
drums of non-hazardous waste on secondary containment.
Paint Room
We asked Rich how they managed their rags. Rich said that the MEK evaporates and they throw
the rags in the regular garbage. I took a photo of paint stir sticks sitting in a can with either
thinner, MEK, or both. We saw two containers under the table. One contained rags and other
paint-related debris and the other one contained spent MEK that is allowed to evaporate, and
then the resulting solid material is thrown in the regular garbage. We asked Rich to lift off the
spout and saw that it was about 3/4 full of MEK.
I asked about metals in any of the paints. Rich left to ask Collin Buck, Quality Assurance Rep
for the paint area to join us. Collin said that they use chromium-free paint. They use the MEK
to clean the paint guns. I explained to them that they can’t let it evaporate because it is hazardous
waste. I instructed Rich to label the container “hazardous waste,” ensure that it remained closed
expect when in use, and then when full, dispose of it as hazardous waste.
We went to look at how they manage the swabs in the masking area. (Photo 28) They are also
left to dry and then thrown in the regular garbage. (Photo 29) I explained that the swabs are
hazardous waste or that they could be managed under the solvent wipes exclusion and promised
to send them additional information.
Weekly Central Accumulation Area Inspections
We reviewed inspection records on the big screen. They are done every Monday or the next day
if a holiday is involved. Rich Madsen completes the inspections.
Manifests and LDRs
Sally reviewed hazardous waste (HW) manifests from July 2020 through 12/28/2023.
We had questions about some of the HW manifests.
• 016050821FLE – Cathy Soffel had scratched out her own name, initialed and then re-
signed on same day. (Photos 7&8)
• 016047655FLE – ok final page completed electronically
• 017109304FLE (with 017110776FLE) – Chad Kerr signed
• 014089344FLE – rejected at CHA and sent to NV
• 014089196FLE – Gary Mosser (of AET) signed for Blanchard. Rich said that Gary calls
in each instance that they sign the HW manifests or do a manifest transfer, asking
permission to do so.
• 016050821FLE – split to 017109107FLE
Rich told us that high cyanide waste takes a long time to accumulate, and disposal generally
takes a long time as well. I explained that transfer facilities only have 10 days and yet the
transporter Blanchard contracts with had told Rich they could take as long as six months to get
Blanchard’s waste to the destination facility. I explained exception reports to Rich and advised
that Blanchard should confirm that the destination facility can take their waste prior to turning
their waste over to the transporter. I explained the process to request an accumulation time
extension if the destination facility could not take their waste in a timely manner.
We found one manifest that required an exception report, #017110776FLE (Photo 6). I asked
Rich to reach out to the transporter and ask them why they transferred the waste from manifest
#017109304FLE (Photo 5) to manifest #017110776FLE (Photo 6) and where the waste was
stored between the time it was picked up on 1/6/23 and when Ana Lopez, US Ecology in Beatty
NV signed manifest #017110776FLE on 7/31/23. Neither manifest is in EPA's electronic
manifest system so it is important to learn where the waste was over those 7 months, and to
verify that it was actually received at US Ecology in Beatty NV.
Rich submitted this information on June 27, 2024:
I reached out to Gary Mossor, the Head of Operations, at AET who informed me that the waste
on manifest 017109304FLE, when initially picked up at Blanchard, was planned on being
treated at Clean Harbors in Aragonite Utah. However, on February 21st, Clean Harbors
notified them there was a hold on their shipping incinerator and would not be able to pick it up.
He explained that AET then kept the 3 drums on their transporter and it moved between the Salt
Lake, Denver & Las Vegas locations, as to not violate the 10 day holding requirement, until US
Ecology agreed to accept the material July 11, at which time it was transferred to
017110776FLE. If you have any additional questions, he was more than happy to speak with
you.
Contingency Planning & Emergency Response
Blanchard has prepared a hazardous waste contingency plan (CP) and quick reference guide
(QRG). Blanchard’s CP and QRG included most of the required elements.
The following deficiencies were noted:
• UAC R315-262-262(b)(6): the nearby fire hydrant (not owned or maintained by
Blanchard) flow rate was not listed in the QRG;
• UAC R315-262-262(b)(8) and UAC R315-262-261(d): one of the individuals (Kerry
Bertelson) listed as an alternate emergency coordinator no longer works for Blanchard;
• UAC R315-262-261(e): The contingency plan did not include the required list of
emergency equipment and the location of the equipment.
• UAC R315-262-261(f): The facility evacuation plan was posted on the walls but was not
included in the hazardous waste contingency plan provided for our review.
I explained to Rich Madsen that he would need to update Blanchard's contingency plan with the
list of emergency equipment, where the equipment is located, an evacuation plan, and remove K.
Bertelsen.
Training
Blachard contracts with RMEC to provide their employee training. We reviewed the training
content from RMEC on the big screen. We noted that the content was compliant. The date of
their last RCRA training was December 2023.
Rich Madsen, Steve Rij, and Chad Kerr signed the hazardous waste manifests we reviewed. Rich
explained that Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous material shipping training is
included in the training conducted by the contract trainer that comes onsite to train Blanchard
employees. He and Steve Rij were trained on DOT requirements after the general RCRA training
provided to the rest of the staff. Rich was unable to provide documentation of the DOT training
he described to me. Chad Kerr had not received Department of Transportation (DOT) Hazardous
Material Shipping General Awareness, Function-Specific, Safety, and Security (49 CFR
172.704) training as required for employees who offer hazardous waste for transportation.
I promised to send Rich the DOT training documentation requirements, which I did on May 1,
2024.
Rich Madsen, Steve Rij, and Chad Kerr received HazMat shipping training from Dan Nye of
RMEC on June 21, 2024. Documentation of the training was provided to DWMRC on June 27,
2024 (DSHW-2024-006991).
Follow-up
I sent an email to Rich Madsen noting the following and requesting documentation of corrections
on May 1, 2024. All of the issues have been addressed and documentation was provided to
DWMRC (via dwmrcsubmit) on June 27, 2024 (DSHW-2024-006991).
1. Yesterday we found one manifest that required an exception report, 017110776FLE.
Please reach out to your transporter and ask them why they transferred the waste from
manifest number 017109304FLE to manifest #017110776FLE and where the waste was
stored between the time it was picked up on 1/6/23 and when Ana Lopez, US Ecology in
Beatty NV signed manifest #017110776FLE on 7/31/23. Neither manifest is in EPA's
electronic manifest system so it is important to learn where the waste was over those 7
months, and to verify that it was actually received at US Ecology in Beatty NV.
2. Update Blanchard's contingency plan with the list of emergency equipment, where the
equipment is located, an evacuation plan, and remove Kerry Bertelsen. Send the updated
plan to your local responders and copy me on the email so I know you've sent it to them.
Blanchard’s emergency plan was updated to include a list of emergency equipment
(sections 3.0 & 4.0); the plant layout was revised to show the locations of the emergency
equipment; a detailed evacuation plan was added to section 16.0; and Kerry Bertelsen
was removed from the plan.
3. Label the tote and 4 drums with the words "used oil" and send me a photo. The drums
were relabeled “used oil.” The tote was labeled “sed oil.” Photos were sent.
4. Clean up the very small amount of filter cake on the floor underneath the filter press and
send me a photo. The filter cake was cleaned up off the floor and a photo was sent.
5. Manage rags and swabs used to apply MEK as either F005 hazardous waste or as exempt
wipes that are disposed of (see attached regulatory excerpt) Let me know which option
you have chosen and then send me photos of the swab and rag containers. Rags are not
used with MEK, however cotton swabs are. Four “Justrite” containers were purchased,
labeled and put at the point of use. The Emergency Contingency Plan was updated in
section 18, #4. A photo was sent.
6. Manage spent MEK liquid waste as F005 hazardous waste. The satellite container in
which the spent MEK is being accumulated must be kept securely closed at all times
except when adding or removing waste; the container must be labeled with the words
"hazardous waste" and an indication of the hazards of the contents. You may accumulate
up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste in a satellite accumulation area. Once you have
reached 55 gallons, you must transfer the waste to a central accumulation area within 3
days. The 90-day clock begins when you reach 55 gallons or when you move the
container from the area in which the waste is generated. Send me a photo of the closed
and labeled satellite accumulation container. A flammable cabinet was purchased,
labeled, and a 55-gallon drum placed inside for satellite collection. Section 18, #4 again
describes this in the Emergency Contingency Plan
7. Train all employees (including Chad Kerr) who sign hazardous waste manifests on
Department of Transportation (DOT) Hazardous Material Shipping General Awareness,
Function-Specific, Safety, and Security (49 CFR 172.704). Rich Madsen, Steve Rij, and
Chad Kerr received HazMat shipping training from Dan Nye of RMEC on June 21, 2024.
8. Please provide records that document the training required in 49 CFR 172.704.
Recordkeeping. Each hazmat employer must create and retain a record of current training
of each hazmat employee, inclusive of the preceding three years for as long as that
employee is employed by that employer as a hazmat employee and for 90 days thereafter.
The record must include: (1) The hazmat employee's name; (2) The most recent training
completion date of the hazmat employee's training; (3) A description, copy, or the
location of the training materials used to meet the requirements in paragraph (a) of this
section; (4) The name and address of the person providing the training; and (5)
Certification that the hazmat employee has been trained and tested. Documentation of the
training was provided to DWMRC on June 27, 2024 (DSHW-2024-006991).

Follow-up from Blanchard Metals Processing inspection

Hi Rich,
Thank you for showing us around Blanchard and for being so engaged about compliance with the RCRA regulations. Attached are excerpts from
the rules about exception reporting and about exempt solvent-contaminated wipes.
Here are the items that require some follow-up:
1. Yesterday we found one manifest that required an exception report, 017110776FLE. Please reach out to your transporter and ask them
why they transferred the waste from manifest number 017109304FLE to manifest #017110776FLE and where the waste was stored
between the time it was picked up on 1/6/23 and when Ana Lopez, US Ecology in Beatty NV signed manifest #017110776FLE on
7/31/23. Neither manifest is in EPA's electronic manifest system so it is important to learn where the waste was over those 7 months, and
to verify that it was actually received at US Ecology in Beatty NV.
2. Update Blanchard's contingency plan with the list of emergency equipment, where the equipment is located, an evacuation plan, and
remove Kerry Bertelsen. Send the updated plan to your local responders and copy me on the email so I know you've sent it to them.
3. Label the tote and 4 drums with the words "used oil" and send me a photo.
4. Clean up the very small amount of filter cake on the floor underneath the filter press and send me a photo.
5. Manage rags and swabs used to apply MEK as either F005 hazardous waste or as exempt wipes that are disposed of (see attached
regulatory excerpt) Let me know which option you have chosen and then send me photos of the swab and rag containers.
6. Manage spent MEK liquid waste as F005 hazardous waste. The satellite container in which the spent MEK is being accumulated must be
kept securely closed at all times except when adding or removing waste; the container must be labeled with the words "hazardous waste"
and an indication of the hazards of the contents. You may accumulate up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste in a satellite accumulation
area. Once you have reached 55 gallons, you must transfer the waste to a central accumulation area within 3 days. The 90-day clock
begins when you reach 55 gallons or when you move the container from the area in which the waste is generated. Send me a photo of
the closed and labeled satellite accumulation container.
7. Train all employees (including Chad Kerr) who sign hazardous waste manifests on Department of Transportation (DOT) Hazardous
Material Shipping General Awareness, Function-Specific, Safety, and Security (49 CFR 172.704).
8. Please provide records that document the training required in 49 CFR 172.704. Recordkeeping. Each hazmat employer must create and
retain a record of current training of each hazmat employee, inclusive of the preceding three years for as long as that employee is
employed by that employer as a hazmat employee and for 90 days thereafter. The record must include: (1) The hazmat employee's
name; (2) The most recent training completion date of the hazmat employee's training; (3) A description, copy, or the location of the
training materials used to meet the requirements in paragraph (a) of this section; (4) The name and address of the person providing the
training; and (5) Certification that the hazmat employee has been trained and tested.
Please email or call me if you have any questions.

Hello Steve,
I am a hazardous waste inspection with the Utah Department of Environmental Quality and I am reaching out to you to set up a
hazardous waste inspection at your facility on April 23, 2024. It seems that Rich Madsen is probably the person I will need to
interact with, however our records do not include his contact information.
I would greatly appreciate you passing this on to him to make the necessary arrangements to confirm my visit.
Thank you,

Hi Judy,
Thanks for your patience as I have worked through getting this information prepared for you. Please see below for a
summary of actions taken and advise if you require anything else:
1. I reached out to Gary Mossor, the Head of Operations, at AET who informed me that the waste on manifest
017109304FLE, when initially picked up at Blanchard, was planned on being treated at Clean Harbors in Aragonite
Utah. However, on February 21st, Clean Harbors notified them there was a hold on their shipping incinerator and
would not be able to pick it up. He explained that AET then kept the 3 drums on their transporter and it moved
between the Salt Lake, Denver & Las Vegas locations, as to not violate the 10 day holding requirement, until US
Ecology agreed to accept the material July 11, at which time it was transferred to 017110776FLE. If you have any
additional questions, he was more than happy to speak with you.
2. BMT 500 (Emergency Contingency Plan) updated to revision F to address:
1. List of emergency equipment (section 3.0 & 4.0)
2. Plant layout updated to revision I showing the location of spill kits (other equipment was previously and still
is identified).
3. Detailed evacuation plan, based on each employee's assigned number, in section 16.0.
4. Kerry Bertelsen removed from procedure
3. 4 drums of oil were re-labeled with USED OIL rather than WASTE OIL
4. Small amount of filter cake was removed
5. Rags are not used with MEK, however cotton swabs are. 4 "Justrite" containers were purchased, labeled and put
at the point of use. Emergency Contingency Plan updated in section 18 #4.
6. Flammable cabinet purchased, labeled, and 55 Gallon drum placed inside for "satellite" collection. Section 18 #4
again describes this in the Emergency Contingency Plan.
7. Rich Madsen, Steve Rij and Chad Kerr trained to D.O.T. Hazardous Material Shipping General Awareness
requirements. Details of this training covered in section 7.
8. All Blanchard Key Personnel identified in procedure BMT 500-1 were given annual hazardous waste training using
the same training outline shown when you were on site.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Rich Madsen

Hi Rich,
Thank you for showing us around Blanchard and for being so engaged about compliance with the RCRA
regulations. Attached are excerpts from the rules about exception reporting and about exempt solvent-
contaminated wipes.
Here are the items that require some follow-up:
1. Yesterday we found one manifest that required an exception report, 017110776FLE. Please reach
out to your transporter and ask them why they transferred the waste from manifest number
017109304FLE to manifest #017110776FLE and where the waste was stored between the time it
was picked up on 1/6/23 and when Ana Lopez, US Ecology in Beatty NV signed manifest
017110776FLE on 7/31/23. Neither manifest is in EPA's electronic manifest system so it is
important to learn where the waste was over those 7 months, and to verify that it was actually
received at US Ecology in Beatty NV.
2. Update Blanchard's contingency plan with the list of emergency equipment, where the equipment is
located, an evacuation plan, and remove Kerry Bertelsen. Send the updated plan to your local
responders and copy me on the email so I know you've sent it to them.
3. Label the tote and 4 drums with the words "used oil" and send me a photo.
4. Clean up the very small amount of filter cake on the floor underneath the filter press and send me a
photo.
5. Manage rags and swabs used to apply MEK as either F005 hazardous waste or as exempt wipes
that are disposed of (see attached regulatory excerpt) Let me know which option you have chosen
and then send me photos of the swab and rag containers.
6. Manage spent MEK liquid waste as F005 hazardous waste. The satellite container in which the spent
MEK is being accumulated must be kept securely closed at all times except when adding or
removing waste; the container must be labeled with the words "hazardous waste" and an indication
of the hazards of the contents. You may accumulate up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste in a
satellite accumulation area. Once you have reached 55 gallons, you must transfer the waste to a
central accumulation area within 3 days. The 90-day clock begins when you reach 55 gallons or
when you move the container from the area in which the waste is generated. Send me a photo of the
closed and labeled satellite accumulation container.
7. Train all employees (including Chad Kerr) who sign hazardous waste manifests on Department of
Transportation (DOT) Hazardous Material Shipping General Awareness, Function-Specific, Safety,
and Security (49 CFR 172.704).
8. Please provide records that document the training required in 49 CFR 172.704. Recordkeeping.
Each hazmat employer must create and retain a record of current training of each hazmat employee,
inclusive of the preceding three years for as long as that employee is employed by that employer as
a hazmat employee and for 90 days thereafter. The record must include: (1) The hazmat employee's
name; (2) The most recent training completion date of the hazmat employee's training; (3) A
description, copy, or the location of the training materials used to meet the requirements in paragraph
a) of this section; (4) The name and address of the person providing the training; and (5)
Certification that the hazmat employee has been trained and tested.
Please email or call me if you have any questions.

CLASS OUTLINE
HMIS and SDS Right To Know:
1. Explain the SDS and HMIS systems and what it entails.
a. All incoming chemicals must be identified and labeled per BMT 501
and according to the SDS sheet that was supplied with that chemical.
b. Because the chemical manufacturers of the certain chemical have the
most knowledge of all details and hazardous ingredients of that
chemical, they must provide SDS sheets to their customers upon
request. These sheets must be correct to the best of their knowledge.
2. Explain the rating system and personal protection rating:
a. The basics for the Health Hazard Rating is based on the acute toxicity
of the chemical. Acute toxicity refers to the effects that are evident
shortly after exposure to a hazardous material such as, rashes, burns,
etc. This is measured on a scale of 0-4, 0 = minimal hazard, 4 = severe
hazard.
b. The Flammability Rating is based on the flashpoint of the material.
This is also measured on a scale of 0-4 as outlined below. The
flashpoint is the minimum temperature needed to ignite the chemical.
0 = Any material that will not burn in air at 1500ºF for 5 minutes.1 =
All materials having a flashpoint of 200ºF or more. 2 =
Liquids having a flashpoint above 100ºF but not over 200ºF Materials
that readily give off flammable vapors). 3 =
Materials with a flashpoint below 73ºF and boiling point of 100ºF and
above. These materials are capable of ignition under almost all
normal temperature conditions. 4 =
Very flammable gases or very (volatile) flammable liquids with a
BMT 500 Rev. F 06-12-2024 7
flashpoint below 73ºF and boiling point below 100ºF.
c. The Reactivity Rating is based on the ability for the chemical to react
with other chemicals, water, heat, or pressure. Also measured by a 0 –
4 rating.
d. The Personal Protection Rating is supplied by the chemical
manufacturer. It describes exactly what type of equipment should be
used when handling certain types of chemicals. This is done by an
alphabetical rating A-K describing which equipment to use, and is
designated on supplied wallet cards (everyone must have wallet cards
on hand). An X means that before you handle that chemical your
supervisor must be notified and asked for special handling instructions.
3. Discuss SDS sheets explaining in detail what is located on the SDS sheet and
where it is located. (Sample HCL SDS are utilized for this activity). Any
questions are answered.
4. Wallet cards will be supplied to employees that do not have them.
5. A detailed explanation of where to find and how to read all SDS sheets on site,
specifically:
a. Located in safety cabinet outside plating shop supervisor office
b. Front office (Original copies of all SDS)
c. All SDS are current and available for every chemical on site.
6. Any other applicable videos may be shown.
7. Any additional questions are answered at this point.
8. HMIS/SDS quiz will be administered to all employees. These quizzes must be
dated and signed by the employee.
HAZARDOUS WASTE TRAINING OUTLINE:

from the building.
8.0 FIRE CLASS OUTLINE FIRES:
1. There are 4 types of fires:
a. Class A – Wood, plastic and paper products.
b. Class B – Flammable liquids and combustible liquids.
c. Class C – Electrical fires
BMT 500 Rev. F 06-12-2024 10
d. Class D – Combustible metals (Titanium)
2. The best extinguishing agents for each class of fire are:
a. Class A - Water, dry chemical.
b. Class B - Dry chemical, Carbon Dioxide (No water shall be used,
fire will spread).
c. Class C - Dry chemical, Halon, Carbon Dioxide (No water shall be
used as electrocution could occur).
d. Class D – Sand, special materials, foam
3. Identifying the different types of fire extinguishers:
a. Carbon Dioxide – has a large nozzle
b. Dry chemical - has small nozzle
c. Water – stainless steel container (no water extinguishers at BMP)
4. Things you should know about fire extinguishers:
a. Most extinguishers will only last 8 -30 seconds
b. You should always hold a fire extinguisher in an upright position.
Some water extinguishers are an exception).
5. What to do in case of a fire:
a. You should sound an alarm to warn other people by way of an
intercom, shouting, or other alarm devices if available.
b. If there is any doubt in your mind, call the fire department/911.
6. When attempting to put out a fire with an extinguisher:
a. Always approach fire from the upwind side.
b. Point the fire extinguisher at the base of the fire, moving back and
forth.
c. If you are unable to put out the fire, call emergency phone 911,
then contact your Emergency Coordinator(s).
d. Even if you able to put out a fire, call your Emergency
Coordinator. He/she will determine which steps to take next.
e. If the fire is around hazardous waste or chemicals that might burn,
use extreme caution – it may give off fumes that could be fatal to
you. Do not try to put out the fire yourself. You should call your
Emergency Coordinator and/or the fire department/911.
7. The handling and knowing of flammable and combustible liquids:
a. A flammable liquid is a low temperature igniting liquid that will
ignite at 200ºF or less.
b. Combustible liquids are liquids that will ignite at 200ºF and
above. A good example are diesel fuel and oils.
c. When you are pouring a flammable liquid you should always
ground both containers. The reason for this is that the drum/can
you are pouring from causes friction that could ignite the liquid.
BMT 500 Rev. F 06-12-2024 11
8. What to do in case of a flammable liquid spill:
a. Make sure the area where the spill happened has been well
ventilated.
b. Contain the spill to the smallest area possible using sand bags, sand
or floor dry to clean up the spill, then put the material into a
specially marked container. (-CONTAMINATED FLOOR DRY-)
c. Do not use a steel shovel to clean up the spill. A spark can still
ignite the material.
d. One gallon of flammable liquid that has been spilled on the ground
equals up to 600 gallons of vapor before it evaporates (the vapor
will ignite).
e. Combustible liquids are much safer to handle than flammable
liquids because of their high flashpoint.
9.0 PREPAREDNESS AND PREVENTION:
Blanchard Metals will be equipped with the following required equipment:
1. An internal communications or alarm system capable of providing immediate

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Shipping & Receiving Requirements
All hazardous materials must be
prepared in accordance with the
appropriate federal Hazardous
Materials Regulations found in
Title 49 CFR (Transportation)
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Shipping & Receiving Requirements
Hazardous material must be properly classed, described, packaged,
marked, labeled, and in condition for shipment;
Ensure that the material offered for shipment is neither “forbidden”
nor “prohibited” from transportation;
Know exactly what you are shipping and receiving - If in doubt
STOP.
At Blanchard, this process has already been performed when
each material offered for shipment was “PROFILED” by the waste
contractor. Blanchard is responsible for using the correct labels,
markings, and packaging.
This is discussed in detail on the next slides…
CLASSIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION OF MATERIALS
Application of applicable regulations begins with
classification of the material, and was performed
by Blanchard / Hauler
Hazardous Materials are grouped into 9 primary
hazard classes
Some of these hazard classes have subdivisions
Properly describing a hazardous material not only
communicates the presence of a hazardous
material, but also establishes the specific emergency
actions to take in an emergency
DESCRIPTION OF MATERIALS
